China Glaze Peachy Keen

I’m still working my way through the Up & Away collection, and this beauty is called China Glaze Peachy Keen. As the name suggests, it’s a light pastel peach. I think it’s super cute, and it’s very flattering on my hands. I look very tan, even though I’m not!

Peachy Keen is a bit camera shy, but I think these pics are pretty accurate.

The formula is a bit weird, both thick and runny at the same time. But with a little patience (and a lot of acetone), it’s ok. I used 3 coats for full opacity, the first couple of coats are a bit streaky, but I waited in between coats and it was fine. (By the way, this game is seriously my most important manicure tool! I just play a level when I have to wait between coats, I stay entertained and I don’t have to mess up my polish.)

I don’t have any colors like this one in my stash, but I thought you might want to see how it looks next to other similar-ish colors. Here’s a comparison with some oranges and a coral.

What do you do while waiting for your polish to dry?

  3. För att vara en persikoton är den här väldigt smickrande. Jag trodde inte den skulle funka alls på mig men jag gillar den verkligen!

  4. I love this color on you!! It’s orange, but not that fire red kind that can be a little loud, love it!

    I pass my polish drying time with blog reading or MUA nail board stalking lol.

  5. Oh and I just put that game in my bookmarks! :D

  6. Har faktisk bestilt Peachy Keen, så den gleder eg meg til å prøve :)
